Mixed in with the fun and games are great vendors who offer health booths including medical screenings, sports physicals, dental exams, & vision screenings. It's hard to tell which is a learning or a gaming tent with all of the goodies being handed out at each booth. It's easy to see why this event has been going strong since 2001.
